I had quite the adventure in Bangkok staying both in this room and at Pridi Hostel. Let me explain. I stayed in Bangkok during the height of rainy season and this room was where I was originally staying. However, during an unusually heavy day of rain, the shower plug burst from the water pressure and the room flooded. Alex immediately sprung into action and moved me to Pridi Hostel a couple minutes away. He had all of my clothing washed the following morning and the room I moved to in the Hostel was lovely.
This room where I had originally stayed was amazing as well. So long as you're okay with the occasional gecko as a roommate (they're harmless btw). I would say that as long as you're open-minded, this accommodation is great! Especially when you take into account the price. Alex was a phenomenal host and answered any questions I had very quickly. He even set up a car to take me to the room in Bangchak from the airport (you pay for it of course, but cash is easy to get at the airport and the ride was cheap despite the distance). The location is also right next to a university, so there are plenty of shops and restaurants to eat at. Pridi Hostel is also very close to one of Bangkok's major hospitals, which can be convenient in case of emergency and medical care is very cheap compared to my home country. Everyone was very helpful and I had a wonderful time in Bangkok, even with all the rain. If I'm ever in Bangkok again, I will absolutely being staying at one of Alex's accommodations. Thanks for everything!
